Synopsis

La survie dans les zones désertiques exige un haut degré d'adaptation des animaux et des plantes. Pendant la journée, la chaleur est insupportable tandis que la nuit frigorifie tout. Après plusieurs semaines de sécheresse suivies de pluies tropicales, les masses d'eau du désert offrent quelques heures de répit à la vie.

The fourth in Walt Disney's True-Life Adventure series, the 1956 film Secrets of Life features previously rarely-seen film footage of nature's "behind-the-scenes" goings-on that play a huge role in making the planet what it is. From bees to ants and the flora and fauna surrounding us, Secrets of Life reveal a sometimes startling glimpse into nature's wonders that we often take for granted. Accompanied by remarkably appropriate musical selections, viewers find themselves mesmerized by the metamorphosis of air-borne seeds into glorious plants and flowers with the help of time-lapse photography.
